Thanks so much Dave, Always had a laugh on lessons which made me so calm. Thanks again. x
Adam Galyas, Featherstone
Dave has been a top driving instructor, his teaching style is great and the way Dave explains things makes it easy to pick up. I always felt completely comfortable and confident, when driving, as Dave was always patient and helpful with any mistakes I made. I would highly recommend Dave to anyone. He’s a great guy, really funny which makes the lessons fun too! Thanks for all the help, Dave.
Issac Powers, Featherstone

Steffan Galyas, Featherstone
Driving was always a confidence thing for me and Dave's lessons helped boost my confidence tenfold. He explains things thoroughly whilst being extremely patient with any mistakes I made. He's a great guy and always easy to talk to. Thanks Dave for making my driving lessons so enjoyable
Kieran Martin, Featherstone
It was apparent from day one I wasn't going to be a natural driver. My flaws had flaws but with Dave's excellent guidance and calm nature he gave me the confidence to believe in myself and overcome my anxiety. I couldn't recommend a nicer, patient and more understanding instructor.
Nadia, Featherstone
I never thought I would need to drive when I lived in London but moving to Shropshire meant that I had to learn late in life. Driving did not come naturally to me and I was nervous. I am glad that I found Dave. He is patient and is an excellent instructor. He kept calm even if he had to explain the same thing to me a hundred times Dave increased my confidence and I honestly could not have wished for a better instructor. Thank you so much for all your patience, I would not have passed without you!
Adrian Davies, Featherstone
Great driving instructor, easy to talk to and helps you out with anything your unsure about. Cheers for passing me first time.
Joseph Hull, Featherstone
Dave has been teaching me how to drive for just under a year. He is funny, patient and most of all a great instructor. He built up my confidence by teaching me the best ways to drive and through giving me all the tools i needed to pass my test first time. I would recommend him to anyone wanting to learn how to drive. Thanks for getting me there.
Ozzy Mollamehmetoglu, Featherstone
It might sound dramatic but I was almost traumatised by my first instructor and thought I would never be able to be a driver ever in my life. That was right before I met Dave. When I first sat behind the wheel of the beautiful Mini, I was shaking with anxiety. He assured me that I could do it. Although I didn’t believe him that day, here I’m staring at my driving licence with pride. He is calm, extremely patient and knows how to communicate with his students. It is no exaggeration to say that his way of teaching could be a brilliant case study. From not being able to adjust a mirror to parallel parking like master driver! All thanks to Dave!
Hannah Mulqueen, Featherstone
I've had the best time learning to drive with Dave! From stalling 8 times in an hour to having the best lesson, I've always felt right at ease! Pretty sure we've put the world to rights many times and it's made me so comfortable while learning to drive! Thank you for everything!
Faye Campbell, Featherstone
I’ve had a great time learning how to drive with Dave! Lessons with Dave just felt like a drive with your mate once a week! Really helpful guy that doesn’t make you feel any pressure, has amazing patience and you are always guaranteed a bit of a laugh. I would 100% recommend him to anybody looking for a driving instructor! Thank you for helping me pass... FINALLY!!!
Amy Purchase, Featherstone
Patience has to be Dave’s middle name after me.... teaching you all about staying calm cool and collected not matter the situation, he will become not only you’re driving instructor but your friend which from your first lesson will put you at ease, I can’t thank Dave enough for what he has done for me and my confidence In driving , ( PS I won’t tell anyone we cried when I passed lol )
Ellie Plant, Featherstone
Ellie Plant Dave has been a great instructor for me and I highly recommend him to anyone, he put up with my “Ellie Moments” and never lost his patience with me. His friendly and humorous manner and approach really relaxes you and puts you at ease. Without him I don’t think I would’ve passed! Thanks Dave
Jaskaran Singh, Featherstone
Dave is a fantastic instructor, always offers the best advice and will prepare you to ensure you are ready in time for your test. He is also a good friend with whom I will stay in touch with and is full of laughter. I would recommend anyone to have lessons with Dave and I’m sure in a few years my sister will be having lessons with him.
Matt Ewins, Featherstone
Dave has been a great instructor, I could not rate him highly enough. He is extremely patient. With Dave you will never feel like something is beyond your capabilities, he always has great advise to offer if you struggle with anything. I will miss my Tuesday slots as he’s also a good laugh, like having a friend in the passenger seat not just your instructor. Thank you again for all your help Dave & I’ll see you in the near future for curry night, I’ll drive!
Natasha Perry, Featherstone
Dave has been my driving instructor for over a year and finally I passed! He is so kind and helps you along the way! He is patient and does what you need to help you improve along with giving pointers and constructive criticism, I would recommend Dave to anyone who is looking to take lessons as he is amazing!
Ollie Jarvis, Featherstone
Dave was a great tutor for me, mainly because he was always in a good mood and he made the lessons fun. He never got annoyed or frustrated if I made a mistake, instead he offered help and guidance which put me at ease and made me feel comfortable when driving. Thanks Dave for helping me pass first time!
Chazina Basra, Featherstone
I would highly recommend Dave as a driving instructor, he is extremely patient and calm even with my occasional mishaps haha. After a series of failed tests I initially struggled to build up my confidence but learning with Dave helped me to overcome my fears and put me at ease. Thank you so much Dave!!!!!!
Danielle Wenlock, Featherstone
Second Attempt but finally got it. If anyone ever asks me about driving instructors I’m going to send them to Dave. He has been so patient with me over the last 3 years with me doing lessons when I’m home from university. Dave has not only been the best instructor ever but he has been a support rock through all of it. He never gets angry if something goes wrong and always want you to do your best even when your having a bad day with a parallel park (which in my case was most lessons).Thank you for everything Dave. It’s going to be weird not having you in the passengers seat talking about Harry Potter xx
Sukh, Kingstanding
The best instructor with excellent teaching skills.
Maymuna Muflehi, Kings Heath
I have had Shawn as my driving instructor for the last few weeks, as my previous instructor was not well and stopped teaching me. I have to say Shawn is an extremely patient and calm instructor. He explains things really well as I could have the safest and best experience in driving. He made me feel comfortable and confident throughout my lessons. I am so happy to say I have passed my driving test today First Time :). I would 100% recommend him. Once again thank you so much Shawn. :)
Sedoo Oziegbe, Kings Heath
I am writing to express my profound appreciation to Shawn for his invaluable support throughout my journey to obtain my driver's license. When I initially enrolled in driving lessons, my primary goal was to prepare for and pass my driving test. However, Shawn went above and beyond to ensure not only my success but also a significant improvement in my driving skills. Shawn consistently demonstrated patience and a calm demeanor, always willing to explain concepts repeatedly to ensure my understanding. He provided me with a wealth of resources, including books, videos, and links, to enhance my knowledge of driving. Despite my occasional lapses in engaging with these materials, Shawn remained patient and encouraging. Shawn's meticulous and detail-oriented approach to instruction left a lasting impression on me. Every time I sit behind the wheel, I am reminded of his guidance. I can confidently say that I am a much-improved driver today, and I successfully passed my driving test on my first attempt, a credit entirely due to Shawn's dedication and expertise.
Sanka Serasinghe, Shirley
I came across Shawn through a friend and I’m really glad that I did. He is very attentive and his practical methods made me pass on my 1st attempt. I highly recommend Shawn as an Instructor and wish him all the very best in all his future endeavours.
Harshamali Samaratunge, Wednesbury
Shawn is an excellent driving instructor. He really cares a lot about the journey of his students as shown by his supportive attitude and calm demeanour. He is happy to work with you when arranging and planning lessons allowing for a certain level of flexibility. Shawn is also an easy person to talk to, having comfortable conversations adding to an all round great learning environment. He is very observant of how one drives, ensuring safety in early lessons and attention to detail in the later ones. I would definitely recommend Shawn.
Eshana Samarakoon, Kings Heath
Shawn is a tremendous instructor, patiently taking the time to thoroughly explain driving until I am confident. With a lot of resources at hand, the learning was effortless and comprehensive. The lessons were very enjoyable, and I felt relaxed to face various driving situations. I have learnt a lot in driving safely and consideration for other road users. As a result, I passed in the first attempt and strongly recommend Shawn as a driving instructor!
Thamali Wijepala, Shirley
I recently had the pleasure of learning to drive with Shawn Herath from LDC and I couldn't be more satisfied with the experience. From start to finish, Shawn demonstrated a level of expertise and patience that truly set them apart. Shawn's teaching style is clear, concise, and tailored to the individual needs of the learner. As a nervous driver, I felt at ease with Shawn who always provided constructive feedback positively. Shawn's commitment to safety is evident, and he instil confidence in his students. He goes above and beyond to ensure you not only pass your test but become a confident and responsible driver. Thank you for making the learning experience both enjoyable and educational!
